In addition to whitewater rafting and tubing adventures,
Sunburst Adventures provides many instructional courses.
Wilderness First Aid courses are provided routinely.
Climbing, rappelling and spelunking instruction is also
available at Sunburst Adventures. These courses are ideal
for those interested in guiding or leadership positions in
the wilderness.

Wilderness First Aid courses are offered routinely on the
property. An experienced whitewater raft guide provides
instruction for the course. The course is designed to
provide you with the tools to make critical medical and
evacuation decisions in remote locations. Unique to
Wilderness first aid is that it includes nursing care that is
not otherwise apart of first aid training. Typically a
Wilderness First Aid course will last 80 hours, and often
times provide college credits and may include certification.

The course focuses on training students to quickly and
accurately assess a situation. Students are then to
improvise solutions using the resources available in order
to stabilize the patient until further medical attention can
be reached. Topics that will be covered in the course might
include: basic life support, responding to trauma,
prevention and treatment of blood-born pathogens, treatment
of infectious disease, management of bone and joint
injuries, management of spinal or head injury, response to
sudden illness, and evacuation planning and implementation.

Sunburst Adventures also offers climbing, rappelling, and
spelunking instruction on the premises. Come out to learn
and discuss skills and gear for belay protected rappelling
off snow, rock and ice slopes and faces on major peaks.
Hands on instruction and practice prove to produce
well-equipped climbing and spelunking instructors.
